Richard Branson and Jamie Oliver team for charities

Sir Richard Branson is teaming up with Jamie Oliver for the Screw Business As Usual Summit on May 14.

Taking place at Jamie’s restaurant, Fifteen London, the summit will raise awareness for their foundations, Virgin Unite and the Jamie Oliver Foundation.

Money from ticket sales will go directly back into the continued support of the two charities, which are both helping to create jobs and opportunities around the world and are also challenging social and environmental problems in an entrepreneurial way.

Guests will get to meet a host of top business leaders who will be speaking about how businesses can really “Screw Business As Usual.”

Those speakers will include Jochen Zeitz, CEO of Sport and Lifestyle and CSO of PPR and Chairman of the Board of PUMA, and John Bird, founder and editor-in-chief of The Big Issue, among others.

The event will also feature the announcement of the Screw Business As Usual competition winner.
